In the Stars for SeptemberThe Sun in Virgo: Harvest and AnalysisAs September unfolds, the Sun transitions through the earth sign of Virgo. This period is characterized by a focus on attention to detail, thorough analysis, and the practical task of harvesting and tidying our figurative—and literal—gardens. The energy of Virgo supports us in organizing our lives, refining our routines, and engaging in self-improvement efforts.
Lunar Eclipse in Pisces: Heightened Awareness A significant astrological event this month is the Lunar Eclipse on September 7th, which occurs in the water sign Pisces. This full moon eclipse brings dynamic shifts, encouraging both reflection and the initiation of new beginnings. The eclipse is especially notable for those with strong placements in Virgo, Gemini, Sagittarius, and Pisces. During this period, intuition is heightened, and there is a renewed focus on personal growth. The influence of the eclipse invites a greater awareness of what areas require your attention, urging you to pay close attention to detail and refine your focus.
Solar Eclipse on Sept. 21 at 29 degrees in Virgo energizes and awakens our consciousness. If you are a Virgo on the cusp with Libra, then this will impact you. So stay centered during this new Moon energy. The Sun moves into the air sign Libra on Sept. 22, ushering in the fall season, with cooler temperatures. This is a great time to put plans into action.
Mercury in Leo: Reviewing Leadership and Communication Mercury’s movement through Leo this month prompts a review of leadership styles and communication skills. As we continue to process ideas that surfaced during Mercury’s recent retrograde in Leo, September is an opportune time to reassess priorities. This especially applies to relationships, involvement in organizations, and overall well-being. The planetary influences at play encourage making conscious choices that contribute to stability and personal growth. Take this opportunity to set meaningful intentions and release patterns that no longer serve your highest good, aligning your actions with your inner aspirations.
Venus and Mars: Leadership and Balance Venus, travelling through the fire sign of Leo, energizes a search for improved leadership models, both within the home and in the political arena. Meanwhile, Mars in the air sign Libra works to maintain balance and fairness in actions, whether they are taken locally or on a broader, international scale. Mars’s transit impacts Cancer, Capricorn, and Aries natives through square and opposition aspects; this energy can be tense and dramatic, while Libra may experience a surge of energy and motivation in its pursuits.
Jupiter planet of growth, wealth and wisdom, moves through the water sign Cancer, giving benefits and improvement to the water signs Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Jupiter helps to expand our consciousness. It will run with Mars in Libra, forming a square aspect which can bring about tension, restlessness and recklessness, so manage your energy this mid-month.
Saturn and Neptune: Shifting Perspectives Another significant movement this month is Saturn’s retrograde journey from Aries back into Pisces, which will last for the next five months until February 14, 2026. This retrograde period influences our sense of compassion and empathy, prompting a more critical examination of reality and encouraging us to distinguish between practical perspectives and illusion. Alongside Saturn, Neptune also retrogrades in Aries, trailing behind Saturn until December. On December 9th, Neptune will resume direct motion as it moves back through Pisces, marking another shift in the astrological landscape. Saturn and Neptune will continue to impact the water signs Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, while Aries natives can find some relief until Feb. 2026 when Saturn moves direct in Aries.
Uranus will enter retrograde motion in Gemini on September 6th; this can continue to influence the air signs Gemini, Libra and Aquarius; it lends or enhances ingenuity and inventiveness. However, the squares and oppositions to Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces can bring about sudden changes to those sun signs this month. Decisions may be made to enable change.
Pluto in the air sign of Aquarius compels us to have humanitarian, progressive insights. For those whose consciousness is expanding during these trials, we are experiencing between autocratic drives and democratic initiatives around the world. If you are an air sign, Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius native, you may benefit from this expansion of awareness. More difficult energetic shifts to Leo, Scorpio, Taurus and Aquarius natives if you need a nudge to shift your perspective. Pluto will be in Aquarius until 2043. We’ve yet to see what the world order will be like then.
